At my friend's, some fitter laid TV-SAT about 5 years ago. The SAT signal is there, and the terrestrial TV signal DVB-T disappeared simultaneously on 3 TV sets because they are connected to the same antenna. The first suspicion fell on the power supply which is connected to one of the plugs / TV sets.
This is a ZZA-7 power supply with a crossover (described as a + 12V crossover), which is probably the original for the Telmor Antenna ... I don't know if the power supply diode was lit on the power supply before, but at the moment it is off ... so I took off the plug where the power supply is connected and the voltage is measured ... the meter shows 9V - is it the correct voltage? I know that antenna amplifiers are usually powered with a voltage in the range of 5-12V or maybe even 0-12V ... and I do not know how it is in this case, maybe this 12V is required? The plug also has such a spiral wire, on the plus wire, between the power supply and the cable wire ... I measured behind this spiral, maybe it causes a voltage drop and 9V is ok and should I look elsewhere for a problem? Only with this one receiver is the power supply, in the other two the cable is directly connected to the wall socket. I also found a box, something probably a multiswitch with the symbol AZR / 1-69 / 4 ... now after the symbol I read that it is an antenna splitter, powered by 12V ... so probably the wrong voltage is reaching this splitter? I mean the 9V from this ZZA-7 power supply ...
Can any spec confirm my assumptions? Because I do not know whether to order a new power supply, or maybe this splitter, or climb specifically on the roof and measure the antenna directly? Thank you in advance for any hint ...
